Real Mermaids Love The Holidays Blog Tour - Christmas Popcorn Recipe!

Today for the Real Mermaids Love The Holidays Blog Tour, I have one of the characters from the series sharing one of her favourite holiday treats! :D Below you can find the recipe to make your own Chocolate Popcorn with Candy Cane Sprinkles! :D

Real Mermaids Festive
Treats

Hi everyone! Jade here from Real Mermaids.

One of my favourite things about the upcoming holidays is
the great treats we get to make and share. I love food so much, in fact, that I
included a recipe for some of my favourite snacks in each of the Real Mermaids books.

My friend Cori and I thought we’d experiment a bit and
‘holiday-ize’ each recipe for you!

In Real Mermaids Don’t
Hold Their Breath, Cori and I were totally desperate for a sleepover snack
so Cori whipped up a batch of chocolate covered popcorn with some popcorn
kernels, chocolate chips, a brown paper bag and a microwave. I’m not
kidding—that girl’s a genius! We added some candy cane sprinkles here to give
it that festive touch.

Chocolate Popcorn
with Candy Cane Sprinkles

Supplies:

- brown paper lunch bag

- stapler

- measuring cup

- microwave

Ingredients:

- 1/3 cup popcorn kernels

- 2 tbsp brown sugar

- 3 tbsp chocolate chips

- 3 tbsp butter or margarine

- pinch of salt

- 3 candy canes, crushed

Pour the popcorn kernels into a brown paper lunch bag then
fold the top of the bag ¼ of an inch, twice. Secure with two staples (trust me,
Cori Googled it!) at the folded part to seal the bag shut. Put the bag flat in
the microwave and cook on HIGH for about two minutes. Each microwave is
different, though, so you may need to adjust the time.

Meanwhile, add the brown sugar, chocolate chips,
butter/margarine and salt to a microwave-safe measuring cup. Cook on HIGH for
about 15 seconds or until the gooey buttery-chocolaty mixture is melted. Mix
well with a fork then pour it over the popcorn.

Toss like a salad, add the candy cane sprinkles on top and munch
away!
